August Keen, the boyfriend of Teen Mom alum Jenelle Evans, reportedly called 911 last month after an alleged altercation with the MTV vet.
Ashley’s Reality Summary obtained a 911 call made by Keen, whose real name is Daniel Miranda, in Las Vegas on August 31 in which he alleges that Jenelle, 32, had been “hitting” him all night after she “got drunk a lot”.
In a subsequent statement posted to his Instagram Stories, Keen said he had not actually been hit, as well as other clarifications.
In the 911 phone call, Keen told the operator, “My girlfriend got really drunk tonight and she was hitting me all night.” I’d like to be protected to make sure I grab my things.’
“I just want to get out of the house safely,” said Keen, who also works as Jenelle’s manager. His girlfriend could be heard talking in the background of the call.

The 911 operator urged Keen to get away from Jenelle, but he said, “she keeps following me.”
Keen alleged that the star drank ’12 drinks’ and that he had two or three drinks that night. In a police report obtained by Too FabKeen claims he had “eight to 12 drinks.”
When asked if she does drugs, Keen said no, but added that Jenelle “does drugs.”
“He takes pills… he smokes a lot of weed and drinks a lot,” he said.
He was eventually able to leave the house, but Jenelle had allegedly joined him outside.
“I ran to the corner of the street and she chased me,” he said.
Police eventually showed up at Jenelle’s home, but Keen declined to press charges against her, according to The Ashley. She was not arrested.
An official police incident report seen by The Ashley states that Keen did not show any obvious signs of injury and refused to share details about the alleged fight with police.
Keen also works as Jenelle’s manager.
The website also adds that police were not allowed to make any contact with the MTV alum.
“Jenelle was sleeping upstairs and officers were unable to contact her,” the incident report obtained by The Ashley said.
According to the report, Keen packed his belongings into a suitcase and was picked up by a friend. They then left him at home to spend the night.
Keen was reportedly offered services from SafeNest, “a nonprofit agency that works with victims of domestic violence,” according to The Ashley. He refused her help.
Keen took to his Instagram Stories on Wednesday after the story broke and insisted that he “wasn’t hit” and that Evans “isn’t on drugs.”
“Looks like some old stuff got pulled recently,” she posted on her Stories.
‘No, they didn’t hit me. I have zero tolerance for violence and would not stay in any domestic violence situation. No, she doesn’t take drugs (everyone knows I don’t like marijuana, unless it’s for medicinal purposes) and that’s what I was referring to as well.
“We had a good time at a friend’s event, at the end of the night we got in an Uber and had a disagreement on the way to her house. I wanted them to walk me out with some of my things. I don’t like alcohol, because in Heated moments can make things worse. I wanted us both to end the night safely. I thought a mediator at that time could help us end the night.
‘My intentions were to never get any of us into trouble, on the contrary, I respect her a lot and love her a lot. And for your information, there were no children at any time. “I think if the police had seen something suspicious, they would have done (their) job.”

He also clarified statements he made during the 911 call in a statement with In contactand added that the ‘pills’ he mentioned during their call were actually Jenelle’s anxiety medications.
‘In reference to the pills, Jenelle is prescribed medication for anxiety and that’s what I was referring to. And I want to make it clear that there were no children nearby nor were we at their house at the time of the disagreement,’ he said.
Jenelle has never confirmed that she is dating August, but fans have recently speculated that they are together. She filed to separate from her husband David Eason earlier this year.
Jenelle, who rose to fame on MTV’s Teen Mom, has son Jace, 15, with ex-boyfriend Andrew Lewis, son Kaiser, 10, with ex Nathan Griffith, and daughter Ensley Eason, seven years, with David.
